100x times so for that Parisian trampoline bridge. Talk about a death trap. It'd be awesome, unless you really just wanted to get to work, but it'd also likely injure and kill people. The legal system in the US would prevent either of these as massive liabilities.

The bridge is a toy, not a serious bridge.

It's a light-hearted romp of a bridge, really. Tongue-in-cheek travel, that's what I like - none of this grave locomotion for me. Now, the Golden Gate Bridge, well, that's a serious bridge. Can't joke with it, won't lighten up - it just sits there, stolid, swaying gently, as solid as a chartered accountant with a wife and one kid.
